 | This Lua module is used on approximately 370,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages.

Module:Check for deprecated parameters may be appended to a template to check for uses of deprecated parameters. It will place the page in a specific category, and display a preview message, when it finds deprecated parameter uses.
Note: due to the nature of deprecations, this module will often have no templates implementing it.
